[There is a boy (probably) with a box on his head. No holes, but it has several goofy faces scribbled all over it in red ink. Coincidentally, there's a redhead giant of a man behind him with just such a red marker!]

Um, I don't bother with this sort of thing typically, but would anyone happen to have good book recommendations? I have a preference for detective fiction but at this point I'm so desperate, I'll read anyth--

Rider stop that I can feel you doing it!

[The boy swats at his companion, but as he can't see, his aim is completely off. The big man merely laughs.]

Comments

They did and I don't see what my eating habits have to do with anything.

[getinthechariot]

If you don't eat properly, you can't grow, of course!

[upholsteredvelvet]

I finished growing well before I was able to eat properly, so the point is moot.

[getinthechariot]

Well, no wonder you stopped growing! But you're still young yet! You simply need to eat more protein!

[upholsteredvelvet]

I'm not that young! I'm going to be twenty! Most men stop growing by then!

[getinthechariot]

If you stopped, there is no reason to think you may not hit another growth spurt! Particularly if you eat better!

[upholsteredvelvet]

I'm going to stay tiny forever, because even my own body mocks me!

[getinthechariot]

Then why don't you try to prove it wrong?

[upholsteredvelvet]

Now you're just speaking nonsense.

[getinthechariot]

Why is it nonsense? Why give up hope?

[upholsteredvelvet]

Because then I won't be disappointed when nothing goes the way I'd like it to.

[getinthechariot]

That is a defeatist attitude! If you think that way, you won't be able to accomplish anything!

[upholsteredvelvet]

I haven't found anything I'm particularly keen on accomplishing yet, so it works out.

[getinthechariot]

But you certainly don't like being so short!

[upholsteredvelvet]

You're just not going to let it go, are you?

[getinthechariot]

Of course not! I will see to it that you eat properly from now on!

[upholsteredvelvet]

Nosy bugger.

[He should not feel as happy about this as he does. Waver's life is very sad.]

[getinthechariot]

Indeed! But I never would've gotten as far as I have without being that way!

[upholsteredvelvet]

You have a point.

[getinthechariot]

Indeed I do!

Although I do not expect that means you will listen to me from here on out!
